Audrey's Special Day

This morning Audrey was baptized by her daddy...  what a lovely, peaceful event it was!  

We enjoyed beautiful music, a marvelous talk by Grandma Lewis, and writing personalized cards to Audrey.  She was radiant and so happy to be able to take this important step in her life.  

Afterward she described her feelings to me and said that throughout the meeting she felt her insides "fill up with spiritual things."  Emotions were tender as I saw my oldest daughter, so pure and faithful, wanting to be the best she can be throughout her life.  Our primary president gave Audrey a special baptism book to fill out and she spent the morning pondering her thoughts of the day and recording them.  I hope she remembers the feelings she had today.  How blessed we are to have the ordinance of baptism.

She is so beautiful! I can't believe she is old enough to be baptized. Sounds like a wonderful day.

I love moments when people can "fill up with spiritual things." Congratulations Audrey, you are definitely making the world a better place.
